This change lowers ring buffer reclaim threshold from 1/2*queue to budget for better performance. According to our test with qemu + dpdk, packet dropping happens when the guest is not able to provide free buffer in avail ring timely with default 1/2*queue. The value in the patch has been tested and does show better performance. Test setup: iperf3 to generate packets to guest (total 30mins, pps 400k, UDP) avg packets drop before: 2842 avg packets drop after: 360(-87.3%) Further, current code suffers from a starvation problem: the amount of work done by try_fill_recv is not bounded by the budget parameter, thus (with large queues) once in a while userspace gets blocked for a long time while queue is being refilled. Trigger refills earlier to make sure the amount of work to do is limited. Signed-off-by: jiangkidd <jiangkidd@hotmail.com> Acked-by: Jason Wang <jasowang@redhat.com> Acked-by: Michael S.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
